every brief the platform writes, where both harnesses will find it

Browse Source 
opencode discovers AGENTS.md and nothing else — its only target is
H.up({targets:["AGENTS.md"]}), verified in the binary. claude code discovers
CLAUDE.md. no overlap.

every brief the platform wrote was CLAUDE.md, so under opencode a commander got
none of its standing brief, a bot none of its arming instructions, and a plugin
chat none of its plugin's guidance. nothing failed and nothing was logged: the
agent simply knew nothing, which is indistinguishable from the feature not
existing, and is why it lasted this long. commanders can already run under
opencode, so this was live.

writeAgentBrief puts the content in AGENTS.md and a POINTER in CLAUDE.md. a
pointer rather than two copies because these are rewritten every turn, two
copies of that will eventually disagree, and the stale one is the one somebody
reads.

three writers, and the third needed a flag the others must not have:

  bots          rewritten every turn ON PURPOSE, so a template change reaches them
  plugin chats  same
  commanders    onlyIfAbsent — a commander EXTENDS this file over its life, and
                rewriting it when the template changed would delete the job it
                had agreed with the owner

two things that would have quietly defeated it. the file listing handed to a
commander said "CLAUDE.md — this file", which would have had it editing the
pointer. and backfill-commander-credentials appended to CLAUDE.md, which on a
new commander means burying a credential section inside six lines nobody reads —
it targets AGENTS.md where one exists, CLAUDE.md where it does not, so old
commanders still work.

plugins ship these too: email and proxy-manager's chat/CLAUDE.md are now
chat/AGENTS.md. the platform accepts BOTH source names, because a plugin is its
own repository on its own release cadence and dropping the old name would
un-brief any installed copy that had not updated — silently, again.

tested: both files written, pointer is not a second copy, idempotent, rewrites
on change, and onlyIfAbsent leaves an extended brief alone. verified on disk
after a restart.

AGENTS.md where it exists, CLAUDE.md where it does not.
Since 2026-08-27 a commander's brief is written as AGENTS.md with a CLAUDE.md pointing at it, because
opencode discovers only the first name. Commanders created BEFORE that have the content in CLAUDE.md
and no AGENTS.md at all. Appending to the wrong one is the quiet failure this avoids: on a new
commander it would bury a credential section inside a six-line pointer the agent never reads.
